Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bishopton
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in Bishopton
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Bishopton?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your PA7 postcode.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Bishopton and the rest of Renfrewshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
